Angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory mechanism of tripeptides containing aromatic residues.
Angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE) plays important roles in the regulation of blood pressure, and ACE inhibitory peptides in food materials have attracted attention for their antihypertensive function. In this study, the function of amino acids in ACE inhibitory tripeptides was clarified.
